APS Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics 2016 at UC San Diego

We are pleased to announce the 2016 APS Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics at University of California, San Diego! The conference will be held from January 15-17, 2016.

The American Physical Society (APS) Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics (CUWIP) is a group of three-day regional conferences held simultaneously around the United States for undergraduate women interested in physics. The goal of this conference is to encourage undergraduate women to pursue a career in physics by giving them the experience of a professional conference. This includes networking with women in physics of all ages and professional levels, plenary talks by prominent women in physics, and panel discussions providing information about graduate school and career opportunities in physics.

The University of California, San Diego CUWIP conference will feature research talks by female physicists across many disciplines, panel discussions about graduate school and careers in physics, laboratory tours, a student poster session, and opportunities to network with accomplished women in the field.

The Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics are supported in part by the National Science Foundation (PHY-1346627) and by the Department of Energy Office of Science (DE-SC0011076). Further details are available on the APS conference website
